Our Complete Portfolio of Industrial Abrasives
Advanced Abrasives Corporation provides a comprehensive range of industrial abrasives engineered for demanding applications. Our portfolio includes both superabrasives and conventional abrasives designed to deliver consistent results across diverse industries and production environments.
Superabrasives
Our superabrasives category includes:
- Wet and dry diamond powders
- Diamond compounds
- Diamond slurries
- Cubic boron nitride (CBN) powders
- CBN slurries
- CBN compounds
Diamond powders and diamond slurries are widely used in precision grinding, lapping, and polishing of hard and brittle materials such as carbide, ceramics, glass, silicon, and advanced composites. Diamond compounds support fine finishing operations where controlled abrasive concentration and uniform particle size distribution are critical for achieving mirror-like surface finishes.
CBN abrasives are ideal for machining hardened steels and ferrous materials. CBN powders, compounds, and slurries provide excellent thermal stability and maintain cutting performance at elevated temperatures, making them well-suited for tool and die manufacturing, automotive components, and aerospace applications.

Superabrasives for High-Performance Applications
Superabrasives such as diamond and cubic boron nitride represent the highest tier of abrasive technology. Their extreme hardness and durability enable efficient machining of materials that challenge conventional abrasives.
Diamond Abrasives
Diamond is the hardest known material, making it highly effective for grinding and polishing non-ferrous and non-metallic substrates. Our diamond powders and diamond slurries are used extensively in:
- Semiconductor wafer processing
- Optical lens polishing
- Advanced ceramics machining
- Carbide tool finishing
- Metallographic sample preparation
Diamond abrasives support extended tool life and consistent material removal rates. By maintaining sharp cutting edges and uniform particle sizes, they help achieve superior surface finishes and minimize subsurface damage.
CBN Abrasives
Cubic boron nitride abrasives are second only to diamond in hardness and offer exceptional thermal stability when machining ferrous materials. CBN powders, compounds, and slurries excel in high-speed grinding of hardened steels and superalloys. Applications include:
- Tool and die manufacturing
- Automotive transmission components
- Aerospace engine parts
- Hardened bearing surfaces
CBN abrasives maintain performance at elevated temperatures, reducing wheel wear and improving dimensional control. This results in higher throughput and reduced downtime in production environments.
